Usage Guidelines

By default, this function is disabled.

When an SSL VPN user accesses a virtual gateway, the virtual gateway authenticates the user. Two authentication modes are available: One is user name- or password-based authentication, and the other is certificate-based authentication. MAC address authentication is performed after the preceding two types of identity authentication are complete.

Example

# Enable MAC address authentication.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] v-gateway gateway
[sysname-gateway] security
[sysname-gateway-security] mac-authentication enable
